British doctors have decided to use the drug, ivabradine, to treat patients with heart failure straight away, even though it has n
20、ot yet been licensed for the disease in the UK.More than 700，000 people live with heart failure, which occurs when the organ becomes too weak to pump blood efficiently round the body. This can lead to fatigue, breathlessness, increased heart rate and other serious complications. Around 100，000 peopl
21、e a year are thought to die from heart failure and many patients are repeatedly admitted to hospital because of their symptoms.The dramatic results from the trial of 6，500 patientsthe biggest of its kindfound a 26 per cent cut in heart failure deaths, suggesting the lives of around 10，000 British pa
22、tients could be saved each year. The research also found ivabradine will help reduce the number of hospital admissions by 26 per cent, which would cut costs.The trial, carried out in 37 countries including the UK, showed particular benefits for patients who cannot take beta blockers(阻滞药). Beta block
23、ers reduce the heart rate, giving it more time to fill with blood before the next beat. But in as many as 50 per cent of patients beta blockers do not work or have unpleasant side effects.All the patients in the trial had high heart rates of around 77 beats per minute on average. Ivabradine lowers t
24、he number of beats to around 60 per minute without reducing blood pressure, which means the damaged heart is pumping more efficiently at a slower rate.Professor Cowie, consultant cardiologist(心脏病学家) at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London, said, “This_is_a_very_clean_way_of_dropping_the_heart_rate.
25、 Patients on beta blockers complain of tiredness and many stop taking it.” At a very conservative estimate, prescribing ivabradine to eligible patients could save between 5，000 and 10，000 lives a year, he said.56. This passage is most probably taken from _A. a medical magazine B. a government report
26、C. an advertisement D. a personal diary57. Ivabradine used on patients suffering from heart failure can _A. raise breath B. increase heart rate C. reduce blood pressure D. improve the heart pump58. We can learn from the underlined sentence that _.A. ivabradine can remove all the symptoms.B. ivabradi
27、ne is effective in cleaning the heart.C. ivabradine is an environmentally friendly medicine.D. ivabradine has few side effects on heart failure patients.59. What is the authors main purpose in writing the passage?A. To analyze a major studyB. To praise some British doctors.C. To introduce a drug for
28、 a heart diseaseD. To persuade us to use a new drug.解析：56. A。推理判断题。较难。第一段第二、三两句句提到这种新药虽然在英国未得到批准，但是英国医生们已经决定使用其作为心脏病的治疗用药。可以看出该药仍处于试行阶段，并未完全投入市场。结合下文提到该药疗效及心脏病学家的评价，可知全文在介绍该药的实行进展情况，应该出于医学杂志。【解题思路】本题的题眼是第一段的even though it has not yet been licensed和第三段的the trial。57. D。推理判断题。较难。四个题支都涉及该药所产生的效果，论及该药效果的
29、是第四、五两段。【解题思路】本题的题眼是题支中的raise, increase, reduce, improve可以看出是细节性核实最终用药效果。58. D。推理判断题。较难。由第四段最后一句用了But可知beta blockers会带来副作用，反过来，该新药应该没什么副作用。第六段专家认为其很clean，能挽救成功5，000 and 10，000 lives 每年。更加证实其没有多大副作用。59. C。把握主旨题。较易。全文介绍了新药的试用效果很好，应该是和药品有关，但是，该药仍在试用阶段。【解题思路】本题的题眼是clean, could save, trial。 讲述新药安全无副作用，可以
